Castellare di Castellina Chianti Classico Riserva is a distinguished wine from the heart of Chianti Classico, primarily made from Sangiovese with a small addition of Canaiolo. This blend highlights the purity of native varieties, without the influence of international grapes like Cabernet or Merlot. The vineyards, located at an elevation of over 400 meters on limestone soils, offer ideal conditions for grape cultivation. The wine is fermented in stainless steel and aged for over a year in used French oak barrels, with additional bottle aging before release. The result is a complex, well-structured wine with enticing notes of red berries, spice, and a subtle hint of earthiness, perfectly capturing the essence of Chianti Classico.
